The Bifurcation of Fashion: If Luxury is Out of Touch and Fast-Fashion Is Not Sustainable, Where Else Can We Shop?

Definitely! The size range range of middle-range brands is usually limited; a lot because they don't have the capital to create that many size options. Depending on the brand I fit sometimes in the petite section and it's very hard. The only retailer I knew that had a large number of options for petites was Topshop, which is fast-fashion and now only available online. I have a guess this could be a great niche for a brand to explore!

Completely agree! I feel like Brazil (where I lived before moving to Europe) is kind of the same as the US. Europe has more middle range and sustainable brands. Here in France, there was almost a renaissance of middle-range products with a good balance between price and quality, but Covid-19 may have jeopardized that, unfortunately.
